Carolina’s Andrei Svechnikov was defending against the Vancouver Canucks’ Elias Pettersson behind the net when his stick came up and appeared to catch Jarvis under his visor during the first period of the Nov. 14 game.
Jarvis grabbed his face and was cross-checked by Vancouver’s Marcus Pettersson.
Jarvis was writhing on the ice as a trainer came out to look at him. The trainer held a towel to Jarvis’ face as they left the ice.
Svechnikov scored his second goal of the game on the ensuing power play.
